3 Easy Tips for Keeping Your Client Information Organized
For many solopreneurs a large part of their business is working one-on-one with clients, and that means having a way of keeping all of their client information organized and easy to access.
In this article I’m going to share with you my top three tips for keeping everything together, so that you can easily access your client information and know exactly where your clients are in your programs.
1. Physical: Create a Client Contact Sheet
For most business owners there will be a physical client file that you’ll need to create. One of the simplest ways of creating this file is by using a manila file folder in which you simply drop your paperwork into. This file will contain things like the agreement form from your client, assessment forms, or details of any projects that you’ll be working on.
Qualities of Successful Entrepreneurs
The most successful entrepreneurs are always capable of getting clients, making money, and building their businesses. What qualities do most successful entrepreneurs have in common?
They have clear visions. If you don’t know where you’re going, you’re not going to get there.
They have faith in themselves. In the words of Henry Ford: “Whether You Think You Can or Can’t, You’re Right”.
They plan. All successful entrepreneurs need a plan. Plan your daily activities, your marketing strategies, and your short- and long-term business success.
Repurpose Your Way To Making More Money With Less Effort and Time
What the heck do I mean by “repurpose?” Well it’s when you do one thing and then spin that one thing into many. Let’s take a look at how this might work.
1. Write a top ten tip sheet. My first one was called “Top Ten Ways to Live Authentically.” I wrote it 10 years ago and put it online and I still get feedback from it!
2. Flesh out each of your top ten tips into a few paragraphs and now you have an article. Write a 400-600 word article expanding on your top ten tips. You put a “call to action” resource box at the end of the article. A resource box is the jargon term that online article databases use…kind of like a byline, only it’s much more.
I Survived a List Purge (You Can Too)
With so much emphasis on list building and building social media networks, it may seem counter-intuitive to suggest purging a list and losing your bottom 10%.
The philosophy is this: lose your bottom 10% and you’ll feel an incredible surge in your business.
It’s scary to think about, but I just experienced this and wanted to share honestly about what’s happening, what freaked me out, and what the gifts are.
